If I were your aunt I'd be worrying round about now.
I'll stick with the desk I've got - otherwise I'd only be contributing to global pollution by dumping the thing anyway.
Formalin is a trade name for a solution containing 40 per cent methanal (formaldehyde)and 60 per cent water or water and methyl alcohol; it is employed as a disinfectant, insecticide, fungicide, and deodorant. Formaldehyde is used extensively in the chemical industry in the synthesis of organic compounds. Its most important use is in the manufacture of synthetic resins. Recent tests have indicated that it is a carcinogen
Maybe we should all check our disinfectants and deodorants too. (not to mention the insecticides and fungicides - what do they use on good old traditional fly paper?)
